Fuzzy excitation control based on wide-area measurements

In this paper, a fuzzy excitation controller based on wide-are measurement system (WAMS) is built, in which the voltage deviation and its rate are introduced as the input of main-controller, while the deviation and corresponding rate of local generator's frequency and center-of-inertia frequency are acted as the input of the second controller to indicate the global information . The multi-machines system model is firstly set up with MATLAB/PST. Then the digital simulation is conducted to compare the influences of PID excitation controller and fuzzy excitation controller based on WAMS on the transient stability. Results show that applying the fuzzy excitation controller proposed in this paper, the ability to endure serious disturbances can be strengthened and transient stability can be improved. (5 pages)
